I work hard at what I do, and it does take time and a lot of commitment, so for me, it is proving to other people that I'm not just another dummy.

The tradition and the talent and the commitment to time and hard work doesn't change. It's like an island in time.

I'm in a really nice position because I can be selective with the modeling jobs that I do and just work with brands I'm passionate about. The two worlds balance out nicely for me because modeling is so social - it has travel, you meet people, it's extroverted. Whereas painting is very solitary - when I paint, I'm kind of in my own world.

I don't have any formula. I just work with my heart, putting in a lot of hard work.

Raising a daughter is hard work. There's no other way to describe it for me.

There was no one around me who didn't work hard.
